without my evening dessert. a whole month without even a whiff of chocolate.
why?
I was watching a movie & cramming M&Ms into my mouth when I suddenly stoppd & told myself "this is crazy." I don't even taste what I'm eating & there's no enjoyment here. I'm prone to addictions. & eating sweets had evolved into just another addiction. I'd start to panic if I didn't have a dessert to accompany my evening film. I'd stockpile desserts in the freezer -- just as protection. instead of cutting a pie into 6 pieces I'd cut it into quarters.
so I went on a sabbatical. to see if I cd. & to reassess. it was a good experience. I know where I am. I'm ready to resume sweets -- but with control.
at a certain age dessert is like sex. it's better if you don't have it every nite.
